Arsenal are concerned as they face competition for Manchester City striker Gabriel Jesus
According to Cadena SER, the Brazilian has been offered to Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid.
With Alexandre Lacazette having gone, Arsenal will be eager for striking reinforcements this summer, and according reports, Jesus had accepted personal terms with the North London club.
Arsenal was aiming to virtually treble Jesus’ earnings, according to The Sun, by giving him roughly £190,000 per week with bonuses.
Arsenal has been extensively linked with a trade, but Mikel Arteta may find himself worrying about the striker’s future as both Real Madrid clubs have surfaced as prospective suitors.
Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid have reportedly made offers for the 25-year-old, who is requesting €5 million (£4.3 million) each year after taxes.
The revelation is a setback for Arsenal, who were thought to have put Gabriel Jesus at the top of their summer want list after parting ways with both forwards Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette this season.
During his time as assistant boss at the Etihad, Arteta is said to have had a good working connection with the 25-year-old, and both parties were apparently interested in a deal.
